Definitions

  • This invention relates to a sorber comprising a functional resin having functions to separate or recover metallic ions and a method for sorbing metallic ions using the same. More particularly, it relates to a metallic ion sorber comprising a copolymer of ethylene and an aminoalkyl acrylate comonomer which can be used for separation and recovery of a metal from a metal salt aqueous solution and a method of using the same.
  • sorb means to physically or chemically absorb substances and keep them.
  • a "sorber” is a substance which thus absorbs.
  • Resins having a nitrile group or various chelate resins obtained by introducing an aminocarboxylic acid radical, an iminodiacetic acid radical, an amidoxine group or a primary, secondary or tertiary amine into styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer resins have conventionally been recommended for use in recovery of valuable metals or removal of metallic ions from waste water.
  • these resins are usually bead polymers or gels, it is difficult to process them to, for example, filters or sorbers of desired shape having small filtration resistance.
  • the chelate resins and the precipitation method have been tried on recovery of valuable metals, such as the group IIIA metals (according to the periodic table of IUPAC nomenclature, hereinafter the same), e.g., yttrium, cerium and gadolinium, the group IVA metals, e.g., zirconium and hafnium, the group VA metals, e.g., niobium and tantalum, the group VIA metals, e.g., molybdenum, the group VIIA metals, e.g., technetium, the group VIII metals, e.g., rhodium, palladium, and platinum, and the group IB metals, e.g., silver and gold, and the group IIIB metals, e.g., gallium.
  • these techniques have been tried on removal of metals in waste water, including chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, copper, zinc,
  • a large volume of waste water containing chromium is discharged from electroplating factories and factories of other metal surface treatments, such as surface polishing, anodic oxidation, and chemical film formation.
  • the waste water from these factories may be conveniently divided into (i) a chromic acid type waste water containing chromium in relatively low concentrations but discharged in a large quantity and (ii) a thick chromic acid type waste water which is finally discharged in an inconsiderable quantity but contains a concentrated liquid of plate peel combined with the waste liquid.
  • the composition of the waste water varies considerably among factories according to the nature of the industry which produces a variety of products in small quantities, as described in Kagaku Binran (Oyo hen), pp. 1166-1167, Maruzen, Japan (1980).
  • hexavalent chromium present therein which is in the form of chromate ion (Cro42-), is usually separated by precipitation.
  • hexavalent chromium is once reduced to trivalent ions by adjusting the waste water to a pH of 3 or less and then reacting chiefly with an inorganic reducing agent, such as sulfites and acidic sulfites.
  • the reduction solution is then neutralized and rendered alkaline to precipitate chromium(III) hydroxide, and agglomerates precipitated are separated and dehydrated to recover sludge.
  • the residue clear solution is passed through a filter, adjusted to a proper pH, and discharged.
  • Waste water from chromite mines or refineries are essentially handled in the same manner as described above.
  • the waste water from nuclear fuel reprocessing contains a variety of fission products.
  • Predominantly implicit in the constituting elements are process-inerts, e.g., sodium and phosphorus; corrosion products, e.g., iron; fission products, e.g., cesium, barium, lanthanide series, zirconium, molybdenum, manganese, ruthenium, and palladium; and actinide series.
  • process-inerts e.g., sodium and phosphorus
  • corrosion products e.g., iron
  • fission products e.g., cesium, barium, lanthanide series, zirconium, molybdenum, manganese, ruthenium, and palladium
  • actinide series Easygoing disposal of this particular waste water being not allowed because of its long-lasting high radioactivity, a method has been developed and put into practice in which the waste water is vitrified and placed in stainless steel containers, and the containers are semipermanent
  • Extracting agents so far proposed for this separation include tributyl phosphate, dibutylethyl phosphonate, trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO), dihexyl N,N-diethylcarbamylmethyl phosphonate, trioctylamine, di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate, di-(isodecyl) phosphate and di(hexaoxyethyl) phosphate.
  • TOPO trioctylphosphine oxide
  • Methods for recovering noble metals include a method comprising melting a vitrifier and a metal oxide in a reducing atmosphere as disclosed in G.A. Jensen et al., Nucl. Technol., Vol. 65, p. 304 (1984) and Naito et al., J. Nucl. Sci. Technol., Vol. 23, p. 540 (1986); a method of utilizing selective adsorption by quaternary ammonium salts as described in J.V. Panesco et al., ARH 733 (1968) or C.A. Colvin, ARH 1346 - (1969); and a hydrogen sulfide precipitation method ad described in F.P. Roberts et al., BNWL 1693 (1972).
  • Uranium adsorbers using functional resins such as ion exchange resins and chelate resins have been practically applied for a long time to purification of uranium from an exudate of uranium ore.
  • Seawater is expected as a future uranium source, and application of the uranium adsorbers to recovery of uranium from seawater, though not yet put into practical use, has been studied on an industrial scale in every country.
  • use of adsorbers, though not yet industrialized has called attention for a long time to replacement of wet processes in which there is deterioration of a large quantity of a solvent as exemplified by the currently employed Purex process.
  • uranium is harmful to biological environment as a heavy metal and also as a radioactive substance. Uranium is therefore a heavy metal which requires separation from a dilute mixed solution in the waste water treatment everywhere in the atomic energy industry.
  • an ion exchange resin of a pyridine-divinylbenzene copolymer affords excellent results of uranium recovery from poor-grade uranium ore as described in JP-B-54-37016 and JP-B-61-1171 (the term “JP-B” as used herein means an "examined published Japanese patent application”), JP-A-54-103715 (the term “JP-A” as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese patent application”), and Koei-Kagaku Kogyo K.K. (ed.), Gijutsu Shiryo, "Weakly Basic Ion Exchange Resin KEX”.
  • Hydrous titanium hydroxide-based adsorbers and amidoxime type adsorbers are regarded as promising as an adsorber for recovery of uranium in seawater as reported in Egawa, et al., Journal of the Atomic Energy Society of Japan, Vol. 29 (12), p. 1079 (1978). There are many other proposals on adsorbers of uranium.
  • each of these functional resins can be used only in a gel state of a three-dimensional crosslinked structure; otherwise, the resin would be weakened due to swelling and finally degraded in an aqueous solution because of its high hydrophilic properties which are imparted for assuring an adsorption rate sufficient for practical use or which are characteristics of the adsorptive active group thereof.
  • This gel resin has been greatly restricted on the mode of industrial utilization of the resin.
  • thermoplastic resins can be endowed with the function of interest, it would be possible to obtain molded articles of any desired shape which, by themselves or after supplemental crosslinking, offer many advantages such as improved adsorption rate, broadened selection of pressure loss, and freedom of shape of apparatus, thus making a great contribution to uranium recovery.
  • One object of this invention is to provide a metallic ion sorber for separating, recovering or removing metals from various aqueous solutions or waste liquids containing metallic ions, which can be applied to handling of liquids having low metal contents.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a metallic ion sorber for separating, recovering or removing metals from various aqueous solutions or waste water, which is a molded article having a shape suited for increasing equipment efficiency, such as a filter, thereby having wide and varied application to recovery techniques which has never been accomplished by the conventional chelate resins.
  • a further object of this invention is to provide a method for sorbing metallic ions comprising using the above-described metallic ion sorber.
  • the present invention relates to a metallic ion sorber capable of sorbing ions of metals excluding iron and cobalt, which comprises an ethylene copolymer containing from 40 to 95% by weight of ethylene and from 5 to 60% by weight of at least one of aminoalkyl acrylate compounds represented by the formula (I): wherein R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R 2 and R 3 each represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and n represents an integer of from 1 to 4, and having a number average molecular weight of from 5,000 to 50,000.
  • R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group
  • R 2 and R 3 each represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms
  • n represents an integer of from 1 to 4, and having a number average molecular weight of from 5,000 to 50,000.
  • the present invention further relates to a method of sorbing ions of metals excluding iron and cobalt, which comprises using the above-described metallic ion sorber.
  • the ethylene copolymer according to the present invention can generally be prepared by high-pressure radical polymerization as described in JP-B-42-22523 and JP-B-49-45307.
  • the preparation conditions therefor fall essentially within those of the currently widespread high-pressure polyethylene production process. From this point of view, the production process of the copolymer of the invention exhibits good economy.
  • aminoalkyl acrylate compound represented by formula (I) include acrylic esters, e.g., aminomethyl acrylate, aminoethyl acrylate, amino-n-butyl acrylate, N-methylaminoethyl acrylate, N-ethylaminoethyl acrylate, N-ethylaminoisobutyl acrylate, N-isopropylaminomethyl acrylate, N-isopropylaminoethyl acrylate, N-n-butylaminoethyl acrylate, N-t-butylaminoethyl acrylate, N,N-dimethylaminomethyl acrylate, N,N-dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, N,N-dimethylaminoisopropyl acrylate, N,N-dimethylamino-n-butyl acrylate, N-methyl-ethylaminoethyl acrylate, N-
  • Preferred of these comonomers are (di)alkylaminoethyl (meth)-acrylates wherein n is 2 or 4.
  • the preferred comonomers are dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, dimethylamino-n-butyl acrylate, dimethylamino-n-butyl methacrylate, di-n-butylaminoethyl acrylate, di-n-butylaminoethyl methacrylate, methylaminoethyl acrylate, methylaminoethyl methacrylate, aminoethyl acrylate, and aminoethyl methacrylate.
  • n is an integer of from 1 to 4; and the alkyl group as represented by R 2 or R 3 contains up to 4 carbon atoms.
  • Compounds wherein n is 0 or more than 4 and/or R 2 and/or R 3 contain(s) more than 4 carbon atoms are expensive due to relative difficulty in industrial synthesis. Moreover, the so-called high-pressure ethylene polymerization process cannot be applied to these compounds due to the instability under heat and too high viscosity.
  • the polymerization ratio of the aminoalkyl acrylate compound in the ethylene copolymer ranges from 5 to 60% by weight, preferably from 15 to 55% by weight, more preferably from 20 to 50% by weight. If it is less than 5% by weight, the metallic ion sorption capacity is too low. If it exceeds 60% by weight, the resulting resin cannot be used as it is because it exhibits increased sorption of acids and is thereby swollen with an acidic solution, sometimes failing to retain its shape.
  • the acid sorptivity of the resin is ascribable to basicity of the amino group, and swelling of the resin is considered to depend on the relationship between the aforesaid acid sorptivity and the strength of a three-dimensional structure formed by polyethylene crystallites made of ethylene chains in the molecules.
  • the polyethylene crystallites decrease at an increasing rate according as the comonomer increases as assumed from Figure 2 of JP-B-53-6194 showing the plot of melting point (Tm) vs. comonomer amount. It is likely that the crystallite is virtually zero with the comonomer amount exceeding 60% by weight. In some cases, therefore, crosslinking may be needed in order to control swelling of the resin below an industrially acceptable degree.
  • crosslinking may be carried out for the purpose of controlling the degree of swelling or enhancement of the strength.
  • the resin to be used in the present invention is advantageous in that crosslinking can be effected by not only chemical crosslinking but physical crosslinking such as electron beam crosslinking and radiation crosslinking. This is because the physical crosslinking of polyethylene is generally of the curing type.
  • the means of crosslinking the ethylene copolymers containing more than 60% by weight of the comonomer has been unexplored. While the physical crosslinking method is the most suitable approach for effecting crosslinking of such high polymers without impairing the chemically active radicals, there still remains room for further studies with respect to the behavior of such high polymers.
  • ethylene and the aminoalkyl acrylate comonomer may be combined with one or more of other ethylenically unsaturated comonomers copolymerizable with ethylene.
  • the polymerization ratio of the other ethylenically unsaturated comonomer is up to 20% by weight, preferably up to 15% by weight.
  • Such ethylenically unsaturated comonomers to be combined include methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, and vinyl acetate.
  • the ethylene copolymer according to the present invention desirably has such a molecular weight that the intrinsic viscosity as determined in a tertralin solution at 135' C falls within a range of from 0.1 to 4 dl/g.
  • a viscosity range corresponds to a number average molecular weight of from 5,000 to 50,000, preferably from 8,000 to 40,000, or a melt index (JIS K-6760, 190°C) of from 1 to 1,000 g/10 minutes, preferably from 50 to 500 g/10 minutes.
  • the above-specified range of the intrinsic viscosity, number average molecular weight or melt index is a limitation necessary for industrially carrying out molding of the resin.
  • the ethylene copolymer of the invention can be molded into arbitrary shapes, such as tubes, sheets, films, rods, fibers, non-woven fabric, woven fabric, and hollow yarns.
  • the molded fibers, hollow yarns, etc. can be easily fabricated into filters, pipes, etc.
  • the ethylene copolymer when molded into fibers, may be used alone or, if desired to improve fibrous strength and the like, may be blended with poly-a-olefin resins (e.g., polypropylene), polyamide resins or polyester resins to obtain fibers or yarns.
  • poly-a-olefin resins e.g., polypropylene
  • polyamide resins or polyester resins to obtain fibers or yarns.
  • conjugate fibers comprising the ethylene copolymer and poly-a-olefin resins, polyamide resins, polyester resins, etc. in a parallel form or core-sheath form (the ethylene copolymer being the sheath) as well as non-woven fabric, woven fabric, and filters made of these conjugate fibers are also employable in this invention.
  • the ethylene copolymer can also be combined with other high polymers or inorganic materials such as metallic materials, glass and wood to obtain composite materials.
  • the copolymer serves as a functional material, while the other material combined usually serves as a structural material.
  • the fact that the copolymer of the invention comprises non-polar ethylene and a polar aminoalkyl acrylate compound and thus exhibits satisfactory affinity to other materials broadens the range of choice of materials which can be combined therewith; this feature makes the copolymer more useful.
  • the metallic ion sorptivity of the ethylene copolymer is attributed to the chelating ability of the aminoalkyl acrylate comonomer.
  • the resin when the resin is brought into contact with palladium chloride in a highly acidic aqueous solution, the resin turns to yellow inclining to brown more than the solution.
  • the amino group of the comonomer unit is easily quaternalized.
  • the fact that the sorptivity of the copolymer is strongly affected by a pH condition suggests that at least one of the ligands of the copolymer which chelate a metallic ion is the nitrogen atom of the amino group.
  • Sorption and separation of metallic ions from an aqueous solution by the use of the copolymer of the invention can be achieved by adjusting the aqueous solution to the optimum hydrogen ion concentration according to the kind of metallic ion to be separated.
  • the metallic ions to which the present invention is preferably applicable are the metals of the groups iliA, IVA, VA, VIA, VIIA, VIII, IB, IIB, IIIB, and IVB of the periodic table according to the IUPAC nomenclature.

  • sorption of metallic ions means not only adsorption of metallic ions into the copolymer resin but also precipitation of metal salts induced by pH change in the inside or on the surface of the resin, or incorporation or deposition of the metallic ions precipitated from the aqueous solution into the inside or on the surface of the resin.
  • the aqueous solution to be treated is continuously passed through a fixed bed packed with the beads or pellets of the copolymer to a desired height or through a multi-stage filter comprising a desired number of filter media of various shapes, such as fibrous mats, non-woven or woven cloth or cartridges.
